Hi davidsally, Is it a foward control? And how much did magenta go for in the end?

Why what's up with yours? Was that the only thing on mot? Mines next month.

Cheers I might take you up on that one mate, hopefully I'll get a chance to have a look at it on sat and Ill give you a txt if I need one.

Cheers for that I've been after an e type for a while. Can you send me the post code so I can get it tonight?:lol: Mine is very secure as its on axial stands witn no wheels on it, so might make a bit of noise being towed away. Problem is with a tracker it's a precaution not a deteriant...

Haha, not since I had the new engine ( as the last ones air intake was pointing towards the ground with an open end:doh:) Just look at their site, looks good.my at's arnt to smart in mud tho. Took my diff out today and it's perfect so must be the cv joints after all (if thats what their...

Whers that mate? Never heard of it.

Unlucky mate, whats up with it? As they say "you do drive like a mad man" haha Well look at it this way at least yours has all four wheels on,only got three on mine,and might have to take another off,lol, if you need a lift it tomorrow mate ring me. As I'll probs want a break from mine.

Well I wasn't sure how to take it out that way as I got shown from behind the ball (with the 12point nuts). But now that you mention it mate there was abit of play on the longer shaft where it goes inside the hub, but it was turning the shaft but not very smoothly like the smaller shaft...

Thanks James, I've already tried all of the above tho,so might take the diff cover off tomorrow and have a look in there ,I've already drained the oil and cannot see anything in it, ie bits of metal.

Ahh right, different problem then. Cheers

When I had the shafts out I could turn the front prop and see the cog that turns the shafts spinning however when I put the half shafts back on the prop won't turn the hubs.i would suspect that it's the shaft that's in the hub on one side but i can't see why neither wheel turns the prop.

Hi, Not that this helps but I think I have the same problem. But I don't think that it is anything to do with the clutch as in diff lock it's fine. When you are in normal hi box with engine running and in gear does your front Prop shaft spin?

I have took the whole thing off from the bolts behind the big ball, then pull the whole unit away with shafts attached to it. But just took the smaller half shaft out and there's nothing wrong with that either!rrrr rather annoying. Do you have any idea on what to look for next? Thanks

Just took both half shafts out and they were as good as new. Can anyone help me with what to next to try to identify what is wrong? I may be wrong but presume its something to do the diff.cheers

Haha don't we all. :rolly: Just spend all morning taking the longer half shaft out......and it's fine, typical, so going to have a bite to eat then get the shorter one out.and I better find a broken half shaft! it's a strait forward job but I think that's someone's having me on and...
